I agree with all of this. I have always championed the subscription +expansion model for mmos and pure expansion model for games like Battlefield. One of the things newer generations don't know is that back before the microtransaction craze when it was just buy the game and buy the expansions...

I settled on a 5700xt :( I hate settling, was ready to drop on a 3070/3080 but nope couldn't land one. So then I tried for a 6800/6800xt and nothing. So I kept looking just hoping for anything, even last gen, and noticed what the OP noticed. Even 1000 series cards were being marked way up. WTH...

The real issue here is catering to an audience that will never buy the product but bitches and moans for you to make changes to it. FYI if they weren't buying it before they won't buy it after.I quit buying EA games years ago. When they decide to bring back dedicated servers, mod support, and...

Do you feel the same about Cosby/Ceelo green?

Maybe then SWGEMU will stop pretending to still be in development and actually finish

Dude you need to look at what has already happened around the world in places like Portugal. NN has been holding back a wave. We got lucky last time that Wheeler listened to reason. Yes dems and repubs are both beholden to their corporate sponsors. So it is naïve to think one will come in and...

Trump has done nothing that the establishment doesn't want. It is the political face they are putting on when they are attacking him because the polls tell them it looks good when you attack him. The Dems and the republicans are ecstatic at how he is pushing the corporate agenda. Plus his...

Cable wasn't that bad at first either and then they figured out how to sell it ala carte and the cost went up tremendously with out giving more content. With Internet the ISPs didn't know how to quite do it because it was so new but now they have the tech and understanding to totally rip it a...

Wheeler had some great things to say about this.

I'd say The Sixth Sense was his best but I liked both of those also. Neill Blompkamp hasn't done enough to be known for anything else yet. I did like District 9 and Elysium, I never got around to watching Chappie though. I am digging all the Oats Studios shorts so far. I hope they keep it up.

You are full of crap. If anyone was going to exploit it then they would already start doing it. NN has put a stop to it so that we aren't like Portugal and other countries that are proving what our ISPs will do with out. You are spouting a bunch of FUD with out substance. Tell us what is this...

The guy only jumped on the flat earther bandwagon because he saw them as an easy way to raise the money needed. His goal was just to launch himself into the upper atmosphere. And only became a flat earther when looking into ways to raise money. But I guess if there goals align that doesn't...

The market will not fix itself. I vote with my wallet and so do tons of others but the children are who EA and others are banking on. Kids will not vote with their wallet. Kids do not want to be the last one to have a game even if that game is filled with bugs and pay walls and micro...

The monopolies are mostly maintained by collusion. The big ISPs create borders and they do not cross them. There are streets in the same town/city where one side has one ISP and across the street is another and they use the same poles and trenches for both sides. There is a few cities that were...

I wonder how much the gaming and streaming video packages are going to cost?

Wheeler brought about net neutrality the easiest way they could. Removing net neutrality will not change anything you wrote for the better. Its a horse shit argument to trick people into thinking net neutrality is bad. NN has absolutely nothing to do with ISPs having monopolies and you know that...

Pai has the kind of smile that a douchebag trying to shake your hand after he just fucked your wife has. Or more accurately, its shaking your hand as you go to work and thinking of the screwing to come.

Hello Kids came to mind for me.

If Netflix hadn't given in something would have eventually happened but they didn't want to hurt the consumers and their business in the mean time so it is what it is. With out NN the fast lanes would have become a reality already. Affecting all small business for the worse, while just annoying...

It was proven that Netflix traffic stopped being throttled when Netflix gave in and paid the ransom. Whether they were throttling the bandwidth or forcing it to old/slow equipment it is the same fucking thing. It proved they were throttling.

WTF are you talking about? Comcast, Verizon, and AT&T have been against it from the beginning and fought it in court. They lost because Wheeler changed the classification that made it so the internet could be regulated as a common carrier by the FCC and then we got net neutrality on books. Those...

If they make a super AI and keep it in a contained system, not connected to any networks or anything that can be controlled like a vehicle or machinery, I think it could do amazing things for the advancement of our species. But you know some a-hole is going to want to give it form and let it...

The cost is high because of after market selling and limited quantities. They are actually extremely cheap for them to make, hence the low MSRP. The limited runs is just them playing overly safe. When they saw the demand they should have kept production going. Since if you have a cheap product...

I have to say fuck Nintendo. They could easily increase quantities which would actually make them more money. They are just being dicks. Fuck them I will keep playing all those games on my PC. This coming from someone who was ecstatic when I first heard about it. For Nostalgia sakes I would pay...

Just another industry used to gouging customers because they can and then throwing a fit when the party is over rather than adapting. I love how it always goes back to lobbying rather than adapting. Such a crooked world we live in.

Going off the plot it makes more sense for her to not be Asian as a cyborg so that she would not be recognized. I think Scarlet did an amazing job and do not know of any other actress that could portray Major as closely as she did. She was really a perfect casting for the role. Of course there...

In the current time line he is white. It is a white guy and a black guy that are best friends that come from totally different walks of life. When ever an Iron Fist dies, another is trained to take on the dragon and upon defeating the dragon gets the mantle of Iron Fist. For centuries it was...

No he is a fucking white guy. SJWs are just acting like retards (like they always do). Making him a white guy like he is in the comics they say is "cultural appropriation" and using the "white savior trope" but if he was an Asian martial artist it would be a racist stereotype. There just is no...

As long as it doesn't force console players and pc players do be on opposite teams, mixing the 2 shouldn't be an issue. It will just mean that the skill curve gets a bit larger.

It is called taking money for one thing and investing it into something else. All the while stringing investors along on something that might never and probably will never come to be. Insulting someone for showing lack of faith is uncalled for.

It is not any different to troubleshoot PCs in a corporate environment then it is a mac. When you order all your Dells or whatever in bulk they all have the exact same hardware and software also. They are cheaper because IBM and Apple partnered up and Apple is giving them a great deal on the...

I still wonder what we will do for work when robots and ai take over all the jobs. Will the few that own everything let the rest of us have labor free lives also?

I believe it is called being "recreationally offended". It is what the majority of SJW crap is. Not that they don't sometimes have a point. It is just that most the time it is an A hole looking for a reason out of anything to be offended. I think the majority of people would prefer to have...

The way it lines it up at such a quick pace is kind of impressive but if you add mortar to the mix I bet it drops the speed tremendously. With mortar it would need a device to disperse the mortar and then another to spread it and another to clean the lines. I see a robot making a huge mess with...

Hell NO! Input lag on those old Nintendo games because of the wireless controllers is the reason I don't play them on my wii. There are some games that are damn near impossible to play because of it. So if I can play these games from my couch again with out input lag then they will get my money.

Exactly, when a maintenance department goes from having 10 FTEs to 10 robots and 1 robot mechanic WTF are the other 9 supposed to do. There isn't going to be new jobs created. It will be less jobs in every market that robots and ai are added to. After all the jobs in your field are gone what is...

You beat me to it. I find it funny that so many people keep thinking that there will be jobs that are safe.

This is what I came here to say. Correlation does not equal causation. Like a few had mentioned already, it probably has to do with actions that an officer may not normally report or doesn't end in a conviction after being reported but because it is on camera it gets reported and it gets a...

I think it looks good, I don't preorder any games as that is just telling the gaming industry that you like to pay for shit in a box. I will get it eventually though. Normally I wait to make sure bugs are patched or reports that the game is not bug ridden. From what I have seen though, I'm...

I agree, last BF game I bought was BC2. I miss the dedicated servers, mods, and how few cheesy gimmicks like unlocks there were in bf 1942 and bf Vietnam. I could couldn't careless about a campaign, it is BF not MoH. The series was founded and became popular because it was a multiplayer game not...
